Well I'll go to the foot of our stairs...

That was of the less meaningful sayings of my childhood in the chilly north.  Never did quite work out what it actually meant but it was a useful all-purpose phrase, used to express surprise, disgust, wonder, amazement or all or none of the above.  Being born and raised "oop north" I've been a long-time Corrie fan and I couldn't let this week go by without a mention of it's 50th Anniversary.  Even Victoria Wood likes it ....




It's just a shame that Blanche isn't still around to give us a few of her bon mots!


Te-ra Luvvy!
